Share New Research 
Hello! I went through a number of past discussions regarding effect of each type of Time Zone, which creates confusion when handling daily resolution.
I feel it would be helpful if there can be a summary added to https://www.quantconnect.com/docs/v2/writing-algorithms/key-concepts/time-modeling/time-zones
Below is my summary:
- “Algorithm Time Zone” affects
- scheduled events
- historical data
- start / end time of back test
- time stamps in back-test report (orders, logs, etc)
- “Exchange Time Zone” affects
- consolidator
- “Data Time Zone” affects
- daily data
- indicators
Appreciate if you can add on / let me know if my understanding is wrong.

Hi Gowestyang,
Instead of adding all of the things that the time zones affect to the time zones documentation, we updated the documentation on each subject to specify what time zone it's affected by. See the following pages/sections for reference:
Best,
